August 2014

I have. Once. A long time ago. I have vivid memories of my four days in Barcelona when I was an oh-so-smart and naïve nineteen-year-old experiencing Europe for the first time. And after wearing Tardes by Carner Barcelona, and revisiting those memories, I definitely want to go there again.

Today is a Civic Holiday where we live, so we won’t be blogging today but we will be back with Nose-to-Nose on Wednesday, August 6th when we’ll announce the winner of the draw for the 100 ml. bottle of Terracotta Le Parfum by Guerlain.

Listening to Amy Winehouse the other night, I got myself into a despondent funk. I love love LOVE her voice and her music, but when I actually focus and listen to her lyrics, sometimes she does get me downnnn….

Like most perfume aficionados, one of my favourite things to do is to hunt for ‘deals’ on fragrances I love. Like most of you, I have my methods, my ways and my haunts. Here’s one of my best tips: go to the L’Artisan website, look at the upper right hand corner and you’ll see various flags for the countries where L’Artisan has stores. Click on the one that applies to you. I live in Canada, so I click on the American flag.

All of us, Esther, Gwen, and Kay, are off enjoying the dog days of summer with our families and friends, so we won’t be blogging again until Friday August 29th, but we will be filling orders – so explore our blogs, discover news frags in our Decant Store and enjoy this last bit of golden summer…
